Drupal is the English pronunciation for the Dutch word 'druppel' which stands for 'drop'. Drupal is a full-featured content management/discussion engine suitable to setup a news-driven community or portal site. Drupal aims towards easy installation, excessive configuration and fine-grained maintenance capabilities. Due to its modular design Drupal is flexible and easy to adapt or extend.

Drupal is primarily written by Dries Buytaert (dries@drop.org) and built after Slash and Scoop. Drupal uses PHP and MySQL and is a valuable alternative for PHP-Nuke, ThatWare, GeekLog and so on. The source code is available under terms of GNU General Public License (GPL).

We don't have a real demo site yet but Drupal is used by (and created for) http://www.drop.org/. Create an account, play with it for a bit, read the documentation and spend some time getting used to it.
